Happy with dump cart

Nice score Henry, I would guess rare over there. Common here. I have three of them and they get used quite often. . Very handy attachment!

Thank you for your reply Jim...(and those with the thumbs up !...)

Yes, we dont see them that often here, all is a bit hard to come by...and if "something" does show up...the price is just a lot higher then it would be in the USA.

Almost makes u want to fill a container and bring it across the pond hi.

Sometimes you get lucky though...for my "dump cart"...the owner didn't know this was a wheel horse attachment...and wheel horse is a valued brand by many over here.

It isnt in a bad shape either, its first going to the attic ...its soaked in gun oil now... and maybe one day for restoration...though i do like it the way it is already... it is showing "age"..but still more then functional.

 

Lol..Its my 1st day of the holiday...so a good start ! ...my wife and kids looked at me with the "yes..sure ...another ? face'. hihi.

 

Thanks again !

@henryhpsd, great pick up on that ! been trying to find one myself , noticed that oil like sheen on that , absolutely the best way to retain and save any metal , probably the easiest  / simplest thing that you can do to a  recently picked up neglected metal anything. good luck with it , pete

Don't know about that Henry we have gotten them for as low as $50 USD but seen them as high as $300.00 USD. 43-255 Euros

Some guys must think they are gold plated. 

Generally the value is determined by the straightness of the back. Most folks didn't know it, myself included till recently, that they were designed to trip the tub then back up to dump with the back edge digging in. Problem is the rear was not strong enough so we don't advise this practice any more. 

For your convenience...

the best way

 

Lanolin based products are good too!  Ever see a rusted fence in a sheep pen?

.... i didn't realise that either.. thank you for pointing it out !

I paid roughly 80 US dollars for it.

And it is straight.

Im not sure... but think that would be reasonable for USA standards ?

If so...good price for over here..

O well ...it is worth a lot more to me hihi.. its just hard to find one at all hi.
